Explain your
responsibility, as a scholar practitioner, to lead evaluation initiatives.
As a scholar
practitioner, it is my duty to make sure all information that comes to me is
accurate and correct. It is my duty to make sure that the information is given
to the right individuals so they can perform their duties. The gather of information
based on research is used to give a conclusion on certain cases or help to
provide services.
·
Explain what might be
your greatest barrier and/or most important downfall to avoid when leading
program evaluations and why.
The greatest barrier I
can see happening is obtaining false information in my research. Although it
may seem that it doesn’t happen, when doing research you have to be careful of
the sources you obtain, they can be false which will have you giving false information
out to others. Another would be getting my audiences attention, the way you
would present your findings to different groups of people.
·
Describe how you might
minimize this barrier and/or downfall to ensure that evaluations are effective.
By making sure the information I obtain is truthful and
reliable before I use it in my findings. Making the extra effort to make sure
that what I have backs up what I’m trying to show is something that is very
important to me. When addressing the stakeholders, I have to make sure my
approach is appropriate for them. Each group has a certain tone, and approach
that you have to find in order to make sure that your presentation is getting
across to them.
